The Uttar Pradesh government has announced cancelling the board examinations scheduled for February 24 in Prayagraj due to the ongoing Maha Kumbh.
The exam, which was scheduled for February 24, will now take place on March 9 after the conclusion of the Mahakumbh, a directive of the UP government said. The decision to cancel the exam was made in view of the huge crowd expected on February 26 for Mahashivratri Snan in Prayagraj.
